20 year anniversary of the murders at KK's corner has apparently brought the case back to the spotlight, on facebook anyway: this is not from me, simply a post on Facebook that is at the least interesting and at the most scary, but I have no knowledge of any of this.

Revised, July 11, 2017
I haven't talked about this for a long time, but this past weekend marks the 20th Anniversary of the KKs Corner murders in Lake Charles, Louisiana. On July 6, 1997, Stacie Reeves, Marty LeBouef, and 14 year old Nicole Guidry were shot in the back of their head, execution style, while on their knees within the convenience store cooler. One man was convicted of the murders.
I haven't talked about this in a very long time, but I feel obligated to share their story with you today. As the family has started a campaign recently to reopen the case, they are correct that a cover-up occurred!!!
I dedicated many years of my life uncovering the truth about this case.. HERE IS THE SHORT VERSION, please research and share.
(Current Lake Charles Police Chief Don Dixon, pictured below, was the Special Agent for the FBI who helped investigate the case.)
For close to twenty years, then Sheriff Wayne McElveen and his son, Richard, along with numerous other law enforcement officials, operated a cocaine distribution network which, in part, consisted of corrupt deputies confiscating drugs off of Interstate 10 and then stealing them out of the evidence and then using pawns to sale them back to locals. The pawns usually ended up dead, thus the JD8.
The LACE Program in Jeff Davis Parish provided the means, mostly. They would wait to pull over large drug shipments along I 10 in JDP, easier to steal the drugs. That's the reason McElveen controlled that parish and it became the most corrupt.
Stacie Reeves' very close friend, Kevin Able, failed to pay Richard McElveen drug money he owed so Richard and a few guys kicked in his door a few weeks before the murders at KKs and murdered him. They made a poor attempt to make it look like a sucide, as he was shot in the head but was found dead with a very large TV on his chest.
Stacie Reeves knew that Richard McElveen murdered her friend because Richard was over heard by several witnesses at a night club a week earlier telling Kevin that he was going to kill him if he didn't pay. Kevin and Stacie got a gun shortly thereafter for protection. Not only did the sheriff's drug cartel sale drugs, but they frequently used acid and other drugs which subdued the conscious.
After Kevin was murdered, Stacie contact the Louisiana State Police to tell them that Richard murdered him. Sheriff McElveen found out and told Richard. They began planning her murder.
On the evening of the murder, Stacie believed they were planning to kill her at the store so she asked Nicole to stay with her at work thinking they would not try anything around a 14 yo girl. She was dead wrong!
Banking that the firewoks would mask the gun shots, Richard enlisted the store manager, Sherwood Carpenter, (who after the murders got a job as Head of Security at Harrah's casino) who instructed other accomplises on how to disable the alarm, cut three wires while not cutting the fourth. After closing, they entered the store and murdered them, execution style. A witness who feared for his life reported to police that he tried to enter the store during the murders but was told by Richard who was guarding the door that he didn't want "any of this".
Right after the murders, a news paper delivery man, Mr. Jerry Lynn Peters, told police the next day that he, while waiting to start his paper route, witnessed an unmarked police car pulling up and someone coming out of hiding from another vehicle parked nearby and throwing a paper bag inside the trunk before both vehicles sped away. He also stated that he spoke with Sherwood Carpenter at the crime scene that morning and that Sherwood tried to convince him not to talk to the police about what he witnessed. Most importantly, that he saw a greenish sports car with a hatchback, very similar to the type Richard was known to drive. MR. PETERS KNEW IN HIS HEART THAT HE HAD WITNESSED THE MURDERS FLEEING THE SCENE.
Mr. Peters, in a sworn statement, also said that Sherwood Carpenter told him that he knew, without any doubt, that Lassiter was not involved because he was close friends with him. How would Sherwood know who was involved and why would he attempt to discourage him from talking to the police?
Also, Sherwood Carpenter was suppose to work that night, but choose instead to stay on the phone with Stacie Reeves until closing time, till just before the murders occurred.
Then a Jennings City Cop, Johnny Lassister, was very good friends with Richard, he lived in the closest residence to KKs. His bedroom, along with his roomates Ken Wilson, window faced the entrance to the store and thats is where I believe they conducted surveillance of the store. Richards people sold drugs out of it prior to the murders.
So, everyone within law enforcement at that time knew that Richard orchestrated the assination of Stacie to silence her, including current police chief Don Dixon who owes his job to the most powerful man in SW Louisiana, Sheriff McElveen, along with almost everone else in govenment. But they were, and are, afraid to talk. They framed a drifter for the murders. FBI Agent Don Dixon assisted with brain fricking the poor kid and helped Richard beat a lie detector test.

Used to party with Kevin back in the day. Was a crazy mofo. I wonder is Stacey Reeves' maiden name was Nut. Knew a Stacey Nut.

And Marty, didn't he rodeo for McNeese? Seems like I remember him riding bareback.

I fully believe this story as I grew up in SWLA and lived through the elender murders. Nothing quite added up with that or this story at KKs. Mcelveen and his son are widely known as corrupt scumbags. I hope someone does something about it.

I remember where I was when I first learned about Pam's death. On Ryan street for Mardi Gras parade.

kind of adds to the aura of all of those stories i heard about him growing up. if they're true, i can only imagine what it would be like living as an old man knowing that you may have to face some kind of judgment for your actions on Earth

There will always be a cloud over the region until a light is shown on everything....or maybe that's just the smog from the plants?

I thought that to but there are tons of replies, arguments, opinions, etc. If you click on the shares (up to 227 now) then you see the conversations about the post.

I moved to LC years after this happened, but I had always heard that just about everyone knew the McElveen's were responsible for the KK's corner murders.

No, he didn't. Grew up in the same neighborhood as him. Never really hung out with him, just acquainted. He was a nice guy.

Is this the case where the victim's family put up a large bill board in LC?

No that was another murder case but rumors there involved the same person rumored in this one. The family member in that case was a guy named Middleton if I remember correctly.

This is complete bullshite. A good friend of mine was with Kevin the night he committed suicide. He was leaving and sat down on the porch to put on his shoes when he heard the gunshot and ran inside and found him dead.
